If you have been reading the blog for a while, you might remember that I have mentioned The Rachel a couple of times in the past. Well, here it is for the first time (I think). An actual photo of one of my favorite sandwiches of all time… The Rachel: Yes. Last night one of…… Continue reading The Rachel…
I had the best peach for breakfast this morning! Because yesterday was a bit of a disastrous day for my stomach, I decided to switch up the breakfast routine a bit. Instead of my awesome smoothie I opted for a piece of whole wheat toast with peanut butter and a peach. I had no idea…… Continue reading Peachy
…was better than the beginning of my day. I worked a little later than normal today, but still had enough time to get a five mile run in after work. I definitely think that the jelly beans helped me get through my post-work run. 🙂 Thank you, NR! As I was driving to the gym,…… Continue reading The rest of the day…
Happy Tuesday, bloggies. I hope your day was off to a better start than mine was this morning. My drive in to work was sub-par, to say the least. I barely made it to work. I was not feeling well at all (post surgery complications, to be expected I am told for up to a…… Continue reading Jelly Bellies…

It was small and simple. A piece of whole wheat toast, 1 tablespoon of peanut butter (I…… Continue reading Redemption

Yesterday I woke up early, went for a 3 mile run before I babysat for the rest of the morning and afternoon. After getting home from babysitting a little after 4pm I…… Continue reading Where did the motivation go..?
Does anyone out there remember Jordan Marsh? Does anyone remember their amazing blueberry muffins!? How many department stores today could possibly be known for their bakery??? Not many. Nordstrom has a decent cafe, but twenty years after the fact I do not think I will be remembering a cookie from Nordstrom. But I certainly remember…… Continue reading Muffins…
How is it Wednesday already? This week is getting away from me – which is both a good and a bad thing… (I do love when the work week is busy and goes by quickly). Last night D and I set off on a culinary adventure. We had dinner, a beer and baked cupcakes. Sounds…… Continue reading Banana Cupcakes
The last thing in the world I wanted to do last night was make a salad and prep a smoothie. Somehow I managed to force myself to do both, and I was pretty happy today that I made myself get to work in the kitchen last night. The smoothie was good – but we were…… Continue reading Hot Trot
